anyone play league? I've recently become hooked.

I've decided to necro this thread instead of making a new one. An IRL friend and I just recently started playing. I'm like level 6 and haven't bought any champions (I only intend to do so with IP and the 400 RP I got for free).

Wingnut, you still around? My username is LinkCelestrial.

What champions would you guys recommend for somebody that loves to play DPS in general and likes being the one chasing people around?

So far the only one that fits the bill (that I've tried) is Ashe but she's more of a carry. Messing she's not as fun early game. Which is okay but I want a little more...well more.

I'm debating trying Annie to fill this slot. Good idea? Bad idea? How is she in general?

Two of the "expensive" characters that I'm looking at are Twisted Fate (cause he seems like a badass) and Riven, cause she seems like a badass, has a buster sword equivalent and looks like she fits my play style.

Any recommendations on characters to try jungling with?

The vocalist for my best friends band does the voices of Jax, Draven, and a couple smaller characters.

I'm still here, I've been so addicted to this game, I'm still only level 14 myself, so I have a TON to learn. The only characters I have purchase are Karma (my homegirl), morgana and sonaka (I think that's her name). I enjoy the support role for some reason, I find it more challenging. I also run ok mid, usually with morgana. I tried to jungle last night for the first time, it was literally horrible (I ended 1/9/0, I was useless). I'll try to friend you tonight, hope you have skype.

I thought Morgana looked fun. I think I'm gonna just use the free champions and save up for Riven. Maybe buy Ashe just so I have a reliable character that I'm decent with.

I really want to try jungling. Maybe I'll just do it in a private match vs bots to see if it suits me.

My house is usually really noisy when I'm playing games (due to other people). So Skype isn't the best bet, and when I can I use Razer Comms anyways.

Love this game, wish I had more time to play. I'm only level 12 since I got hooked, then stopped for a month and a half, then started again.

Keep in mind that bots don't jungle at all so you might just want to try it in a match vs. people. But wait a while, I suggest. I hear jungling is difficult. :P


I love ADCs, play a lot of Varus and just got gifted Caitlyn so I can play her more now too :D Also have Leblanc for mid but I just don't have the skill to play her yet :( .

Sent you a friend request link. I've been playing every night lately. Gotta grind to get better. Jungling is tough. Once is t enough, it's gonna take a few dozen times to get the feel. Just lane for a bit and grind away at that. Once that loses its fun, then try to jungle. That's what I'm doing

The game automatically matches you with other players at your smile level based on the level of your profile. So what some people do that have accounts that are high level is they open a new account (surf account) so the competition level is lower and you can chill and have fun. It sounds shadey but it's not, it just makes it so you don't have to be ultra competitive anymore and can just enjoy the game instead of having to stress about it.

I made mine as a backup because I've been thinking about selling my account. Gold season 3 so it has victorious Elise, along with 109 other skins ranging from Kitty Kat Katarina to Championship Riven, to other skins that aren't available anymore.

I also really liked the name Fapcom, but my stream and all my social media and everything is gtfotis, lol

Most people make smurfs to make themselves feel better after losing a match on their main accounts, haha

We've got a real MVP up in here! xD

I didn't know that was a thing nevermind that it had a term. Sounds like a good idea. Out of curiosity how much is your account worth?

Not sure, haha too many variables with the value of skins that have been made unavailable, unique summoner icons, and the value of gold reward skins :(

I know championship riven skin cards are like $300 though

I'll never understand spending that kind of money on aesthetics... If I was you I'd have sold it. You can also buy a name change card first so you can make another account by your name. It'd be a selling feature too as you could advertise that they can pick a name for it. Just a thought.

I've official decided to save up for Riven as I just played her (cause I'm finally level 6) and completely destroyed until I went overly aggressive and died a few times. Not worrying about mana is amaze. Broken Wings is insane damage fast and mobile, her stun is great as an escape, saving team mates or holding someone to put in the finishing touches on their death. Valour is a great escape and is especially useful in tower diving and countering stuns.

She is the DPS face smasher I've been looking for.
